Holy Roman Empire
Chapter 60 Can only do things that cannot be said
People are realistic, especially the nobles that have been inherited for hundreds of years have their own set of ways of living. This time the role is reflected.
On April 13, 1848, after receiving the news of the Prague rebellion, Prince Wendishgritz immediately led troops back to the city to rebel. With the cooperation of the local nobility, the whole city was recovered in less than three days.
In order to deter local power factions, Prince Wendy Schgratz ordered the execution of all leaders who participated in the rebellion. Basically, the rebels who were small bosses and above were all executed.
More than two thousand people hung their heads on the streets of Prague, which frightened the nobles who had escaped.
You know that this killing is not just ordinary people. At the request of Franz, it is now a priority to execute big men.
Ordinary people can also be used as labor, and nobles and capitalists participating in the rebellion cannot work, so people with higher social status will die faster.
During the execution, the city government also singled out a group of infamous people and conducted a public trial on them, exposing the crimes they committed in the past.
With their heads in mind, the government of Vienna received another wave of popular sentiment. Looking at the cheering Prague people, they knew how much these people hated.
The loan sharks owed don't have to be repaid. A series of laws enacted by the Vienna government to protect his interests will be implemented here, and the capitalists and tyrants who oppressed them will be put on the guillotine.
The Czechs belonged to the Sislavs and were similar in ethnicity to the Poles, but their culture, national traditions, ways of thinking, reactions to reality, and even eating habits were very close to the Austrians, and were even called "Slavic" Austrians ".
Because the cultural traditions are the same, the Czech people consider themselves to be members of Austria.
According to Franz, the Austrian government can integrate the Czechs into the Austrian family with a little effort.
"Mr. Kantler, I recommended you to the Government of Vienna as the chief of education in the Bohemia region. What is your opinion?" Prince Wendisch Gretz asked
(Bohemian region, now Czech region)
Education chief?This is the god horse ghost, he is an Austrian army colonel, so just converted to civilian?
Okay, Austria ’s civil and military boundaries are not strict. It ’s a piece of cake for generals, but he ’s changing too fast.
Under normal circumstances, Wu Zhuanwen must first have a transition period, and will not turn around until he has adapted. It is rare for him to make such a big leap.
However, from the administrative level, he is considered a promotion. Kantley knows that he does not have too many choices. Prince Wendisch Gratz is not a master who likes others to refuse.
"No, your prince!" Kandry replied
"That's all settled. The Vienna government wants to unify the language of the whole country. You know that. Even for this reason, some of the nobles who participated in the rebellion were spared.
Now your task is to urge them to fulfill the conditions they promised. If anyone dares to repent or passively slacks off, you must report it in time.
Of course, it is not enough for them alone. Now that a number of state-owned enterprises have been added in the Czech Republic, you have to organize teachers to teach ordinary workers German in factories.
Other places, you can do it yourself. In short, German should be popularized as soon as possible. Austria should be emphasized in textbooks and local nouns should be downplayed!"Prince Wendisch Gratz asked
The benefits of unified language are self-evident, but it is not so simple to do, and now the Vienna government can only promote it quietly.
Taking into account the resistance of the people, Franz even abolished other languages, and the documents of the unified German did not dare to send out clearly.
It cannot be said, but it does not mean that it cannot be done.Franz is a pragmatist, and subtly promoting German can also achieve the goal.
It won't take long for many people to realize the advantages of being able to speak German, for example: being able to speak German can get more salary in the factory.
Lure is often better than coercion, and it is not easy to cause a rebound.
The Czech region is just the beginning. After cracking down on the local power, it also attracted some nobles to promote German.
After all, these nobles are from the German region, German is their mother tongue, and they also know Slavic language, leaving them to solve the gap of language teachers.
With the cooperation of these ground snakes, those who dare to make trouble are almost cut off, and the ordinary people will not care so much, and it is not enough to not learn for a higher salary.
"My prince, rest assured, I will do the job well!" Kantler promised
From this Prague rebellion, Kantler has discovered that the Vienna government attaches great importance to the popularization of German, which means that he is doing a promising job.
The specific incentive measures have not yet been introduced by the Vienna government. Well-informed people already know that the Crown Prince attaches great importance to this matter.
Now it is only because of the factors of war that the government's energy is restrained. Once the domestic rebellion is suppressed, the unified language may become Austria's national policy.
There are many smart people, and following the national policy, there is always no harm.At this time, a lot of people have targeted the education chiefs everywhere to start activities.
Kantler was able to serve as the chief of education in the Bohemian region. There is no doubt that not only did he make a contribution this time, but Prince Wendisch Gretz also contributed.
...
The game under Franz was obviously not just for a bohemian.
On April 13, a rebellion broke out in the Galicia region. The rebels once occupied most of Austrian Poland and established the Polish interim government.
However, the rebellion came quickly and went faster. On April 16, the Austrian army began to rebel. With the support of the local people, this powerful rebellion was suppressed in less than a week.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Vienna government cleaned up the local power, Franz showed his fangs, and a wave of packing took away the local nobles and capitalists who supported the rebellion, even the middle class.
That's right, this will really be fighting the local tyrants to divide the fields. Anyone who helps the government to suppress the rebellion can get a piece of land for free. Others naturally pay for it slowly according to the rules.
Differential treatment can reflect the superiority of loyalty to the emperor. If everyone is the same, who would be willing to sell his life for the emperor?
In just half a month, there were more than 20,000 heads of land in the Austrian Polish region, which can be said to be the most thorough suppression since the outbreak of the European Revolution.
After this battle, the newly born Polish nationalism died directly in Austria.The rest are either the bottom of the society or the loyal ministers of the Habsburg family, and the activists are sent to see God.
